8.4/10 Very Good! (1,347 reviews)

The first night I stayed at the Graduate was not good. Thursday 9/25. I asked if I could check in early at 8:30 am, she immediately said no and that I couldn’t check in until 4. She did take my number in case it worked out. I feel that it would be nice if you gave your awaiting customers a card that they could use the gym while they wait. Also there was not enough staff at 4 pm to Check everyone in. Other than that everything was nice.

8.8/10 Excellent! (744 reviews)

It's been fifteen years since we had been to Williamsburg. We really like it, but Summer is over and the place appears to have been run hard and hung up wet. A true National Treasure that may need an infusion of National interest and money to return it to its former glory.
